«Para Un Árabe De Bien No Puede Haber Nada Mejor Que Otro Árabe»: Nación, Etnicidad Y Ciudadanía En La Argentina Peronista «PARA UN ÁRABE DE BIEN NO PUEDE HABER NADA MEJOR QUE OTRO ÁRABE»: NACIÓN, ETNICIDAD Y CIUDADANÍA EN LA ARGENTINA PERONISTA “FOR A GOOD ARAB, THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THAN OTHER ARAB”: NATION, ETHNICITY AND CITIZENSHIP IN PERONIST ARGENTINA Ariel Noyjovich Raanan Rein Resumen Este artículo examina los esfuerzos del primer peronismo para cooptar el apoyo de argentinos-árabes. Estos esfuerzos reflejaban la forma en que el líder veía a la Argentina como un país esencialmente católico que evolucionó hacia una visión más inclusiva de una sociedad multirreligiosa y multicultural que debía abarcar y celebrar dicha diversidad. El líder populista no negó su identidad étnica, sino que más bien los aceptó como una parte integral de la nacionalidad y alentó actividades transnacionales. En este contexto, los límites de la membresía en la comunidad política fueron ampliados y se reelaboró el concepto de la ciudadanía. Esto generó una nueva comprensión de las identidades colectivas, en cuyo marco flexibilizado argentinos- árabes, al igual que otras etnias no latinas, lograron renegociar y conjugar su propia identidad con nacionalidad. Palabras clave: Peronismo / Etnicidad / Ciudadanía Abstract This article examines the first efforts of Peronism to include and support the Argentine-Arab. These efforts reflect the way the leader saw Argentina as a fundamentally Catholic country that evolved into a more inclusive vision of a multi- religious and multicultural society that should embrace and celebrate that diversity. The populist leader did not deny their ethnic identity, but rather accepted them as an integral part of nationality and encouraged transnational activities. In this context, the boundaries of membership in the political community were expanded and the concept of citizenship was reworked. This generated a new understanding of collective identities, in which flexible framework Argentine-Arab, like other non-Latin ethnic groups, managed to renegotiate and combine their own identity with nationality. Key words: Peronism / Ethnicity / Citizenship [Recibido: 10/10/2016 – Aceptado: 9/12/2016] Ante decenas de miles de sus seguidores convocados en la porteña Plaza de Mayo, Juan Domingo Perón incluyo en su discurso del 17 de octubre de 1950 las 20 verdades fundamentales de la doctrina justicialista, o sea la de su partido. La sexta de estas reglas, enunciada frente a la multitud que aclamaba a su líder, reza que «para un peronista no puede haber nada mejor que otro peronista» (Perón, 1952). Contra Relatos desde el Sur, 2016. (14), 49–61 Cuatro años más tarde, dirigiéndose a líderes argentinos-árabes, Perón añadió otra «verdad» fundamental a su vocabulario populista, esta vez con un giro étnico: … esta colectividad tan hermanada y tan amiga nuestra se mantenga siempre unida y que piense que así como decimos nosotros que para un peronista no hay nada mejor que otro peronista, también, dentro de la comunidad árabe en la Argentina, para un árabe no debe haber nada mejor que otro árabe. Quiera Dios que siguiendo la orientación doctrinaria de nuestro justicialismo piensen que la única manera de vencer es uniéndose. Piensen que unidos vencerán. No podemos hablar de unidad de Medio Oriente, pero si podemos hablar de unidad árabe en la Argentina. Es esta unidad que yo quiero prestar todo mi apoyo, mi sinceridad y mi lealtad, para que la colectividad árabe que vive en la Argentina sea siempre unida. No olvidemos que uno de los aforismos peronistas dice que ‘Unidos venceremos’ (Perón, 1954, p. 176). La década peronista (1945-1955) introdujo cambios en los significados y las fronteras de la ciudadanía en la Argentina. Fue un período en el que hubo transformaciones en la representación política y en el desplazamiento gradual hacia un modelo de democracia participativa, que fueron un paso importante hacia lo que consideraríamos actualmente una sociedad multicultural. Las identidades étnicas pasaron a ser menos amenazantes al concepto de la argentinidad. En lugar del tradicional crisol de razas, el gobierno de Perón apoyó las identidades híbridas y enfatizó la amplia variedad de fuentes culturales en las que abrevaba la sociedad argentina. Las autoridades dieron un reconocimiento sin precedentes a las diferencias culturales y étnicas (Rein, en vías de publicación). Este artículo examina los esfuerzos del peronismo para cooptar el apoyo de argentinos-árabes. Estos esfuerzos reflejaban la forma en que el líder veía a la Argentina como un país esencialmente católico que evolucionó hacia una visión más inclusiva de una sociedad multirreligiosa y multicultural que debía abarcar y celebrar dicha diversidad. Durante la segunda mitad del siglo XX, el papel de argentinos-árabes en la política cobró significancia, tanto en los niveles municipales como provinciales y nacionales. El apogeo de este proceso de inclusión política fue con la elección de Carlos Saúl Menem a la presidencia en 1989. Durante la década en que este riojano con raíces en Siria gobernó, ciudadanos con orígenes árabes ejercieron una influencia destacada en el sistema político argentino. Lo que caracterizó a estos políticos fue su accionar en el ámbito de origen provincial y su pertenencia al partido peronista o partidos neoperonistas. Uno de los más destacados fue Vicente Leónidas Saadi, hijo de inmigrantes libaneses que se asentaron en la provincia de Catamarca a comienzos del siglo XX. Como parte del movimiento peronista, la familia Saadi controló la política local durante casi cinco decenios. Un caso similar es el de Felipe Sapag, de la provincia Neuquén. Los Sapag dominaron la escena desde que el territorio neuquino fue promovido a la condición de provincia y hasta la segunda década de nuestro siglo, sobre todo mediante el partido neoperonista que fundaron, el Movimiento Popular Neuquino (MPN). Un tercer caso de caudillaje provincial con ancestros árabes es el del gobernador de la provincia de Corrientes, Julio Romero (Noyjovich, 2016; Dimant, 2014; Noufouri, 2004, p. 398), cuya familia era originaria de la localidad libanesa de Baalbek. Considerado uno de los colaboradores más cercanos a Perón, su familia, los Romero Feris, ejecutaron su legado 50 Noyjovich, A. y Rein, R. – Etnicidad y ciudadanía en la Argentina peronista aunque no desde el Partido Justicialista sino desde el Partido Autonomista Liberal (PAL) que apoyó al gobierno de Menem. Estos tres casos demuestran la importancia de este grupo étnico en la política argentina, especialmente dentro del movimiento peronista, no solo en el contexto local sino también en la arena nacional. Populismo y la incorporación de diferentes grupos étnicos El populismo es uno de los conceptos más difusos en el léxico político moderno. Obviamente, la falta de una ideología coherente y sistemática como en los casos del liberalismo o del marxismo no facilita la tarea del investigador a la hora de descifrar este fenómeno. Las dilatadas y zigzagueantes carreras de numerosos políticos populistas hacen más complejo el problema, particularmente en los casos de líderes carismáticos que fueron cambiando sus políticas, estrategias y principios ideológicos a lo largo de varias décadas (Rein, 2013, pp. 289-311; Zanatta, 2008; De La Torre, 2010). El historiador Michael Conniff divide los movimientos populistas clásicos en América Latina en dos períodos: aquellos que surgieron entre las dos guerras mundiales presentaban primordialmente exigencias políticas y buscaban un gobierno legítimo y representativo. Estos movimientos instituyeron una política de las masas pero no planteaban problemas sociales significativos. El ejemplo primario en el caso argentino sería la UCR que accedió al gobierno en 1916, bajo el liderazgo de Hipólito Yrigoyen. Los movimientos surgidos después de la Segunda Guerra, en contraste, enfrentaron condiciones económicas y sociales diferentes, originadas en procesos de industrialización locales y habitualmente transfirieron su foco y recursos de la agricultura a la industria y buscaban aumentar la porción de las clases trabajadoras al repartirse los ingresos nacionales. Los nuevos líderes populistas tendieron a adherirse a un mayor autoritarismo en sus esfuerzos por imponer las soluciones económicas y sociales necesarias para el desarrollo nacional. Lucharon por movilizar a los votantes mediante los medios de comunicación, reconociendo la importancia crucial del apoyo de la clase obrera y comprendiendo que mejorar las condiciones económicas de estas masas era el precio que había que pagar para ello. Como con sus antecesores, estos movimientos populistas del segundo período eran policlasistas aunque el grueso de su poder se derivaba del apoyo de la clase obrera urbana y partes de la clase media industrial nacional. Un preclaro ejemplo en la Argentina fue el movimiento peronista, un bloque contra-hegemónico, descrito con precisión por Torcuato Di Tella (Di Tella, 1965, p. 47). Incluía a diversos sectores de la clase media, parte de la burguesía nacional, las facciones en las fuerzas armadas que predicaban la industrialización como una forma de garantizar la grandeza nacional y, por supuesto, a la mayor parte de la clase trabajadora. Su ideología anti status quo representaba las protestas de los excluidos, los grupos marginales que deseaban una redistribución del poder, favoreciendo a la mayoría, y una reconsideración del concepto de ciudadanía. Por consiguiente, puede tener mayor sentido hablar de un conjunto de valores y creencias que, aunque no esté ordenado en forma sistemática, refleja una visión determinada del mundo.

Ello generó la dimisión a su cargo de algunos miembros de la carrera diplomática en la embajada hispana y a su vez, la progresiva conformación de una sede diplomática paralela que actuaría bajo las órdenes del Gobierno de Burgos en España. En el presente trabajo nos proponemos seguir con detenimiento el derrotero propagandístico y la actuación diplomática del representante oficioso enviado por el General Francisco Franco a la Argentina, Juan Pablo de Lojendio, prestando especial atención a los vínculos que en su accionar fue generando con destacados miembros de la comunidad hispana en Buenos Aires.

  • Raanan Rein Searching for Home Abroad: Jews in Argentina and Argentines in Israel1
    HOP 5 (1/2013) Raanan Rein Searching for Home Abroad: Jews in Argentina and Argentines in Israel1 Hledání domova v cizině: Židé v Argentině a Argentinci v Izraeli ▨ Abstract: This study deals with the position of the Jewish community in Argentina (the largest in Latin America) and its fortunes, as well as anti-semitic trends in this country since the 19th century. Argen- tinian Jews, or Jewish Argentinians, have integrated into Argentinian life and society without giving up the Jewish elements in their personal or collective identity. The author opens his study with an analysis of the image of Argentinian Jews in several films made by various producers over the last few years (El año que viene… en Argentina, Un abrazo partido, Like a Fish Out of Water). He then deals with the emergence and development of the Jewish Argentinian immigrant community from a historical and sociological per- spective, as well as the image of the community in literary works. Jewish immigration to Argentina (inter alia) was the outcome of economic and social problems in Central and Eastern Europe on the one hand and the liberal immigration policy of the Argentinian government on the other. The author traces where these Jews came from, which waves they belonged to chronologically, which towns they settled in and where they were active; he also provides various details on the size of the Jewish minority in Argentina. Another set of questions hangs over Nazi emigration to Argentina (which helped to create the myth of the country as pro-Nazi and anti-semitic) and various manifestations of anti-semitism that emerged in Argentina.

  • Francoist Spain and Egyptian Jews, 1956-1968
    Rev23-01 30/8/06 23:25 Página 21 Raanan Rein* ➲ Diplomacy, Propaganda, and Humanitarian Gestures: Francoist Spain and Egyptian Jews, 1956-1968 Abstract: Historians still debate over the help extended by Francoist Spain to European Jews during the Holocaust. The Spanish dictatorship always exaggerated the extent of this assistance. This propagandist effort on the part of the Spanish regime to portray itself as the savior of Jews in distress, especially Jews of Sephardic origin, was put to the test during the 1950s and 1960s, when Madrid was asked to help Egyptian Jews following the 1956 and 1967 wars in the Middle East. Based on research in Spanish and Israeli archives, this article argues that: a) Spain could have done more to help Egyptian Jews. Its policy was unclear and inconsistent. Moreover, the assistance that was finally given was intended mainly to improve the dic- tatorship’s image in the eyes of Western democratic public opinion; b) the Francoist dic- tatorship did its best to prevent the settlement of Jews in Spain; c) the help extended to Egyptian Jews owed more to the initiatives of individual Spanish diplomats than to the policy adopted by the Spanish government; d) all this notwithstanding, the help given by Spain to Egyptian Jews should be appreciated and considered within the context of its overall effort to save Jews in distress in other Arab countries in the post-World War II period. Keywords: Franco Regime; Egyptian Jewry; History; Spain; 20th Century. Sixty years after the end of World War II, scholars are still vigorously debating the extent of the help given by Francoist Spain to save Jews during the Holocaust.1 How many Jews were saved thanks to Spain’s assistance? Did the Franco regime adopt a clear and consistent policy towards the Jewish plight? What were the motives behind the fre- quent mutations and reversals in the decisions made by the government of the dictator- ship when it had to deal with this issue? With the conclusion of the world conflict, Spain found itself isolated in the international arena.

Narrated at once against history of Jewish Buenos Aires replete with street the backdrop of Jewish immigration into Buenos names, neighborhood landmarks, and now-fa‐ Aires, Jewish integration into the city’s neighbor‐ mous inhabitants, to which he adds the club’s in‐ hoods, and the changing political reality of Ar‐ tersection with non-Jewish cultural and political gentina through the twentieth century, the trans‐ personalities who contributed to the formation of formation and growth of Club Atlanta (Club Atléti‐ modern Buenos Aires, and at times, Argentina it‐ co Atlanta) is traced with an eye to the inclusion self.

    THE JEWS AND PERÓN: COMMUNAL POLITICS AND NATIONAL IDENTITY IN PERONIST ARGENTINA, 1946-1955 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History of The Ohio State University by Lawrence D. Bell, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2002 Dissertation Committee: Approved by: Professor Kenneth J. Andrien, Adviser Professor Donna J. Guy ________________________ Professor Matt Goldish Adviser Department of History ABSTRACT This dissertation focuses on the question of Jewish ethnic politics in Argentina under the Peronist regime from 1946-1955. Despite the claims of Perón’s detractors in the United States and elsewhere that he was anti-Semitic and in sympathy with European fascism, Perón in fact demonstrated a considerable amount of pragmatism in his dealings with Argentina’s 250,000 strong Jewish population. Like other Latin American populists, Perón combined a corporatist conception of the state with ideals of popular democracy and widespread social mobilization throughout most of his first two terms as President of Argentina. As such, his regime attempted to integrate a number of traditionally excluded groups, including Jews, into its socially and politically inclusive national vision. In February 1947, Perón officially endorsed the creation of a “Jewish wing” of the Peronist Party, the Organización Israelita Argentina (OIA), in effort to court Jewish voters and promote Peronist ideology within the country’s Jewish community. In doing so, he also granted the OIA considerable powers as the final intermediary between the Jewish community and the state. Yet, unlike many other communities, the Jews of Argentina generally resisted the encroachments of Peronism and the OIA, and instead struggled to forge a compromise relationship with the state.

  • Tikkun Olam and Transnational Solidarity: Jewish Volunteers in the Spanish Civil War2
    Raanan Rein1 Оригинални научни рад Tel Aviv University UDK 94(=411.16)(460)”1936/1939” Israel TIKKUN OLAM AND TRANSNATIONAL SOLIDARITY: JEWISH VOLUNTEERS IN THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR2 Abstract The number of Jewish volunteers who joined the International Brigades (IB) in order to defend the Spanish Republic against the Nationalist rebels was very high. Their presence among volunteers from each nation was in most cases great- ly disproportionate to their representation in the general population of those countries. Many of these volunteers held internationalist views, and the idea of emphasizing their Jewish identity was alien to them. But in fact—as is reflected, for example, in the letters they sent from the Spanish trenches to their friends and relatives or in their memoirs—they also followed the Jewish mandate of tikkun olam, a Hebrew phrase meaning “repairing the world,” or showing responsibility for healing and transforming it. Many volunteers attempted to block, with their own bodies if need be, the Nazi and Fascist wave sweeping across Europe, thus defending both universal and Jewish causes. While there is a voluminous bibli- ography on the IB, less attention has been given to Jewish participation in the Spanish Civil War; and most studies of Jewish participation in the war focus on Jewish-European or on Jewish-North American volunteers. There is a conspicu- ous absence of historiography about Jewish-Argentines, and very little written on Jewish-Palestinians, in the Iberian conflict. This article looks at volunteers from these two countries and their motivation for taking an active part in the Spanish Civil War.

  • Challenging Particularity
    Latin American and Caribbean Ethnic Studies Vol. 1, No. 2, September 2006, pp. 249–263 Challenging Particularity Jews as a Lens on Latin American Ethnicity Jeffrey Lesser and Raanan Rein1 Scholarly interest in Jews as a subject of Latin American Studies has grown markedly in the last two decades, especially when compared to research on other Latin Americans who trace their ancestry to the Middle East, Asia or Eastern Europe. In this context, we propose the use of the term ‘Jewish-Latin American’, rather than ‘Latin American Jewry’, in order to shift the dominant paradigm about ethnicity in Latin America by returning the ‘nation’ to a prominent position at a moment when the ‘trans-nation’, or perhaps no nation at all, is often an unquestioned assumption. After analyzing the historiography of the Jewish presence in Latin America as a means of understanding the state of the ‘field’, we advance a series of propositions that might be useful to all students of ethnicity in the region, particularly to scholars working on minorities whose ancestors were characterized religiously as non-Catholic. Keywords: Jews; Diaspora; Nikkei; Israel; LAJSA; Jewish-Latin America; Latin American Jewry; Zionsim; Sephardim; Ashkenazim; Middle East; Asian; Europe; Yiddish; Hebrew Ethnicity is a frequent area of study in 19th and 20th century Latin America. Among the most recurrent themes are the black/white continuum in places such as Brazil, the Caribbean and Venezuela; the indigenous/white continuum in Mexico, Central America and the Andes; and the hegemony of white Catholic Europeans over a number of subaltern groups in the Southern Cone (Appelbaum et al., 2003; Hanchard, 1999; Baily & Mı´guez, 2003).
